A nice light smattering of fruit in the nose. Granville Island produces pretty mild but palatable beers, and this one is no different. The malt is smooth and clean and there are solid hints of orange, melon and lemon in the taste profile. It is a bit of a light weight for a 4.6% session IPA, but refreshing and tasty.

Can from the lcbo. Slightly hazy yellowish orange pour with a small white head. Aroma is pleasant peach, fuzzy peach, lightly tart, light lactic a bit artificial. Mouth feel is thin, carb is lively. Finish is lightly tart, cereals come through in the end. Pleasantly surprised.

Slightly hazy orange pour with a small white head. Aroma has faint lemon and some stale malts, with zero hop presence. Mouth feel and carb are fine. Finish is slightly tart, but not in a good way. Weird sour apple thing going on,stale malts and musty cereals. This is not good.

Bottle. Hazy orange pour, with a medium off white head. Caramel malts, dull, flat hops, candied citrus aromas, sweet, bready. Good mouth feel, good carb, nice body. Finish is medium bitter, green hops cone finish, underwhelming, sweet caramel, sticky malts, light pine resins. Meh.

Copper pour, medium white head. Aroma is bad at all. Some nice citrus, apricots, and subtle pine resin. Mouth feel is average, and tb carb is good. The finish is where this falls off. There is barely anything to speak of. Hints if earthy hops, and that’s about it! Incredibly dry,.it just falls off a cliff.

This beer surprised the hell out of me. I have to admit when i saw the granville island name, i expected the worst. What i got was a really nice, crisp hoppy amber ale. Really nice aromas of crisp cereals malts, and some really nice slight citrus and solid piney hops. The mouth feel was perfect, and the carb is bang on, the finsh was refreshing, and clean. Good hops, solid malts, an all around easy drinking, clean, amber ale.
